SALES BY AUCTION. IN HERTS. A CAPITAL VILLA RESIDENCE, ON' A LARGE SCALE, WITH ITS DELIGHTFUL PARK, PLANTA TIONS AND PLEASURE GROUNDS, EXTENDING TO NEAR 100 ACRES, TWELVE MILES FROM LONDON. MR. GEORGE ROBINS is directed by the Proprietor to SELL by AUCTION, at the Mart, in London, on TUESDAY NEXT, August 28, at Twelve, in One Lot, B ARHAM HOUSE, A distinguished FREEHOLD VILLA, modelled on THE ITALIAN SCHOOL OF ARCHITECTURE in its exterior, and avoiding all the comfortless appearance within that is too apparent in the Italian provinces. It was purchased some twelve years s►nce by THE RIGHT HON. LORD NORTHLAND, when it had assumed the character only of a minor Villa. By means of an expenditure that has extended to at least TEN TIIOUSANU POUNDS, and the advantage of extraordinary tact and judgment, it may now claim to rank high among the most distinguished abodes of London's vicinity; it presents a double front, and it would be somewhat difficult to proclaim which of the two predominates. A Colonnade and Veranda enhances the effect, beside affording facility to indulge in the luxuriant view which encompasses it on every side. The ensemble is as nearly perfect as a combination of art and nature ?an combine, and the delightful illusion is completed by A SPLENDID CONSERVATORY OF THE NEW " HER MAJESTY THfi QUEEN" and the Duchess of Kent, as their much admired abode. Th e si tuation, therefore, is no longer equivocal. The next (and a very important point it is) is to demonstrate its great value for its in tended purpose—fortunately but little is necessary to be said ; the numberless persons from the great metropolis who seek health or recreation, cannot any where, at so easy a distance, meet with a more salubrious air, or more lovely:scenery than at Tonbridge Wells, and when the Calverley Hotel, midway between London, Hastings, St. Leonard's, Eastbourne, &c., and only 30 miles from Brighton, shall present its splendid and economical welcome to visitors, the more reasonable apprehension seems to be, that its ample accommodation will still be insufficient. It is not intended to carry into detail its manifold qualifications, tut confine this an nouncement to a few only of the most prominent points. There are altogether 50 Bed Chambers, more than 20 Tavern or Sitting- Rooms, an elegant and spacious Coffee-room ; with ample Coach houses and Stabling. The Building presents a most imposing front. The architecture is in the best taste of Mr. Decimus Burton, and the arrangement throughout so perfect as to leave nothing more to be desired. To conclude, it may be suggested that if civi lity and moderate charges be appended as the motto to adorn the entrance-hall, it is quite manifest that a certain and very speedy fortune will reward the labours of any enterprizing THE RENT WILL BE UNUSUALLY MODERATE FOR THREE YEARS, and never approach the value which it must eventually obtain under a healthy course of management. Principals will apply to Mr. George Robins, Covent-garden ; and Messrs. Bartrum and Son, Solicitors, 72, Old Broad-street, who will explain in a personal interview the incalculable advan tages this Hotel has in the prospective. The Prem;ses may be seen by applying to Mr. George Robinson, 6, Calverley Prome nade, Tonbridge Wells. SCHOOL. The Lawns are adorned by countless thousands of plants and shrubs. The Parterres and Walks laid out with consummate taste extending to many acres, adorned by stately timber until it approaches THE PARK AND ORNAMENTAL WATER continuing the scene, which is really one approaching Elysium. The new made and thickly..7own plaßtations—the rur a l bridge— the French gardens, and the hermitage, terminates in a picture of surpassing beauty. THE. SPLENDID ABODE is commensurate to all the legitimate desires of a family of high pretensions ; there is an admixture of comfort and elegance that required the MASTER MIND OF AN ARTISTE to arrive at. On an emergency, it. has facilities to accommodate a HOST OF VISITORS ; yet ingenuity has so contrived it, that there is a total absence of that comfortless feeling which belongs to the significant term of being over-housed. It will be found, however, that although it does not aspire to all the attributes of CASHIOBIJRY PARK, its neighbouring and successful rival, yet for comfort and accommo dation, it will not yield one jot. THE DOMAIN IS NEAR ONE HUNDRED ACRES OF' PARK GROUNDS and prolific meadows, including the extensive plantations, lawns, and pleasure grounds. The kitchen-gardens are fully equal to supply the family. There is beside a grapery and melon grounds. The society far and near is remarkable for its social qualities; an d sporting in its comprehensive form may be numbered amongst its multitudinous agremens. It should have been observed that for a winter• residence it claims precedence of any neighbouring com peer. It is secluded by its richly wooded scenery from the piercing cold; and the bygone winter has given proof as " strong as Holy Writ" to this assertion, inasmuch as the plants have been sustained triumphantly throughout the fearful season that has passed. The mapsion, by means of a peculiar stove, is warmed by hot water; and in depth of winter, cold is estranged from this mansion of comfort. (at 6d. e It can only be viewed by cards.

GEORGE ROBINS will SELL by AUCTION, at the Kentish Hotel, Tonbridge Wells, on THURSDAY, the 20th of September, at Three for Four o'Clock, most punctually, by order of the Assignees, with the consent of the Mortgagees, A Long Lease, at a trifling Ground Rent, of an exceedingly valu able Property, with a view to A CONSIDERABLE ANNUAL REVENUE. The Market being authorised to he established, the Tolls to be taken, and privileges enjoyed by the Lessee, as regulated by Act of Parliament. It may be well to offer one or two remarks to affirm this encou raging statement. The public are aware that CALVERLEY PARK which skirts the Town of Tonbridge Wells, has been selected as the favoured spot to erect a number of elegant Modern Villas, of a character to suit the present enlightened age, and meet the GREAT MARCH OF IMPROVEMENT. THE ELITE FROM THE GREAT METROPOLIS needed something more dietinguee wherein to repose during the Summer and Autumnal Season. This Park presented itself with all its glowing beauties, adorned by WOODLAND SCENERY OF SURPASSING BEAUTY, and left no room to hesitate. The Villas in the Park, Calverley Promenade, and the adjacent Buildings, are all completed, with an Hotel of the first importance, one that will incline most of the Hotel Keepers throughout England to hide their diminished heads. AND AN ENTIRELY NEW MARKET HOUSE, adjoining the Camden Inn, and approximate upon Caverley-place, which, by concentrating the " Market Business," will afford both to Visitors and Inhabitants, Buyers and Sellers, the accommodation so much required by the increasing population of this favourite and thriving place. THE ARCHITECTURAL FORM of the Market is in good taste, and the building SOLID AND MASSIVE. Indeed there is a combination of judgment and expense rarely to be met with. A splendid Ball-room adorns the higher story, which is intended for other and more useful purposes, AS A CORN EXCHANGE and CONCERT ROOM ; and occasionally A ROOM FOR PUBLIC MEETINGS. From each in its separate calling, a large income is manifest. THE MARKET HOUSE is supported by Doric pillars of cast iron. The spaee under is intended for the Vegetable market. THE EXTENSIVE OPEN SPACE adorned by a Fountain, _ is suited for the reception of every thing that may be required for the supply of Tonbridge Wells, with T WEN'I'Y SHOPS AROUND IT, uniformly built and adapted to trades-people of respectability. There is besides, a large space at the rear as A DEPOSITORY FOR HAY AND STRAW, and the whole is now in order to commence ACTIVE AND SUCCESSFUL OPERATIONS. The Grand Hotel will he immediately let, and the Park Mansions eagerly sought after; in fine, it appears quite manifest that the SUNSHINE OF PROSPERITY will attend on the active exertions of the purchaser, to whom it may be well to observe that if " HIS WAYS AND MEANS BE LIMITED," he may have (upon security) TWO THOUSAND POUNDS OF THE PURCHASE MONEY ON MORTGAGE for seven years. Particulars may be had of Mr. George Robinson, 6, Calverley Promenade, Tonbridge Wells, who will show the Premises ; at the Libraries and Hotels at Tonbridge and the Wells ; Hastings, Seven Oaks, and Bromley; of Messrs.

WADHURST CASTLE IN SUSSEX, With a DOMAIN of 358 Acres, including the PLEASURE FARM, of 112 Acres—all FREEHOLD—TITHE FREE and LAND-TAX REDEEMED on a portion of it, MR. GEORGE ROBINS will SELL by AUCTION at the Mart in Loneon en TUESDAY NEXT, the 28th of August, at Twelvc o'clock in Two Lots ; WADHURST CASTLE has long been familiar to the public as one of the interesting features of its delightful vicinage; it is six miles beyohd Tonbridge Wells, only three from THE ROMANTIC VILLAGE OF FRANT, and, en route, to HASTINGS AND ST. LEONARDS. It has long been a commanding, as well as an interesting, object to the traveller. The order of architecture is chaste and precisely what a castle should be; it is erected of stone, placed on an emi nence, which tends materially to increase its outward pretensions, besides aiding very much the INTERESTING VIEW OVER THE PARK AND ESTATE. The entree is direct from the London-road, through luxuriant plantations inclining by a serpentine drive to the Mansion. THE PANORAMIC LANDSCAPE that is presented can hardly be surpassed in England; it approaches the delightful illusion which THE EARL OF ABERGAVENNY'S FAMED WOODS (which divide this property from Tunbridge Wells) never fails to inspire. In the distance is seen Rose Hill, Burwash, and Whiligh, with WADHURST TOWN AND ITS FAMED SPIRE, AND THE SURROUNDING WOODLAND SCENERY, perpetually to vary and to enliven the scene, and which is rendered perfect by THE RICH HOP-GROUNDS that are dotted about in every direction. The Castle is not more than commensurate to the legitimate objects of a respectable family, as it was originally designgfor, and is entirely adapted to comfort in its comprehensive form, with offices within and without, so com plete as to leave no wish or inclination ungratified. THE NOBLE TERRACE-WALK, is adorned by little thousands of American and Flowering Shrubs, that have weathered the by-gone Winter's piercing cold, and thus demonstrated the congeniality and mildness of the climate. THE PLEASURE AND KITCHEN GARDENS arc abundant, and there are PROLIFIC ORCHARDS, the pro duct of which is almost incalculable. Around THE CASTLE DEMESNE ARE THREE HUNDRED AND FIFTY-EIGHT ACRES, disposed in WOODS, PLANTATIONS, MEADOW PASTURE, ARABLE AND HOP GROUNDS, entirely within a ring fence, a portion of which is TITHE FREE, AND LAND TAX REDEEMED. The soil throughout is excellent ; the produce generally so abun dant, as to incline a gentleman to agricultural pursuits, while the produce from THE HOP PLANTATIONS bath alone, and not utifrequently, brought 7001. and 8001. into the treasury. The neighbourhood is highly respectable ; and if gaiety be numbered amongst the anxieties of a new possessor, TONBRIDGE WELLS will afford him ample scope ; and a limited visit to Wadhurst Churchyard will cheer the inquirer with the probability of a long . life. Longevity' is therein pro c l a i me d to b e one o f t h e d e li g h ts o f this esteemed neighbourhood. Theft is plenty of game upon tht estate, and the farming lands are all well supplied with water. The Second Lot will include THE PLEASURE FARM, TITHE-FREE, LOCKS HOUSE and GROUNDS in WADHURST TOWN The residence is adapted to a genteel occupation. Mr. Collis, the solicitor, occupies it, with the garden and offices. THE FARM EXTENDING TO ONE HUNDRED AND TWELVE ACRES is one of the best and most profitable in the vicinity, and the Hop Plantations unusually productive. THE PROPERTY IS ALL FREEHOLD, and it maybe affirmed without th e slightest expectation that any o ne can gainsay it, that for a residence of Investment it % ,- ould no easy task to discover a parellel case. Particulars, with a beautiful Drawing and Plan, to vier the may be had Six Weeks antecede n t t o t h e S ale (for sixpence each, Wells,yt to avoid idle intrusion), at th e b est I nns and Libraries at Hastings, and St. Leonards; also at Seven Oaks and Tonbridge Town ; of Messrs.

E• 00 0.1 The Select Committee appointed to consider whether any and what improvement can be adopted in the mode of con ducting private business, and who were empowered to ref ort their observations thereupon to the House, together with the minutes of the evidence taken before them, have agreod to the following report:— " Your Committee, in considering the subject committed to them, thought it advisable to ascertain from competent per sons their opinion as to the effect of the changes which have of late been introduced into the conduct of private business, as well as to inquire into the defects which may still exist, and to obtain suggestions for its improvement. " They refer to the evidence given upon all these points, which they recommend to the attentive consideration of the House. " With respect to- the alterations adopted in 1836 in the procedings on private Bills before the second reading, they have great pleasure in stating, that it appears from all the evidence adduced, confirmed by the opinion of Members of your Committee, who are themselves acquainted with this branch of business, that these changes have operated benefi. cially, and that up to this stage of the proceedings no com plaint is made, and no alteration is to be suggested. " The system of breviates of private Bills adopted at the beginning of the Session appears also to have worked ex tremely well, and to have given satisfaction ; and your Corn_ mitten bear testimony to the able manner in which the gentle man selected by the Speaker for this business has discharged the duties confided to him. " Your CoMmittee are therefore of opinion, that the arrange.. ment made for the preparation of breviates should be con tinued during the next Session, and also that the officer ap. pointed to prepare them should be instructed, in his examina tion of the Bills, to remark specifically in each breviate, upon any provisions which may affect the public interest, in order that the attention of the Government and the House may be pointedly called to any such provision. " Your Committee are unwilling at present to pronounce au opinion upon the policy of making the arrangement for the preparation of the breviates permanent; because it appears to them desirable to have the advantag e of some additi ona l ex perience before a fi na l d ec i s i on b e formed, and because they think it well worthy of consideration whether there might not be some general principles established, in respect to the phrase ology and enactments of private Bills (according to the se veral subjects which they may embrace), which would, among other benefits, tend greatly to reduce the labour of preparing a breviate for each individual Bill. If a specific arrangement according to certain general principles were required, all that House would have to seek fur Kould be distinct information as to cases of proposed exception. " Even if the duties connected with the examination of pri vate Bills, however, were materially reduced in consequence of the establishment of some such general rules as those above suggested, or from other causes, there might be other duties united with the examination of private Bills, which would oc cupy, with great a d vantage to t h e pu b lic, the time and atten tion of an officer of professional acquirements, and which would justify a permanent appointment for their discharge. " For instance, it has been proposed by the Committee which sat in the present Session, on the question of the jurisdiction of the House in respect to controverted elec'ions, that the whole proceedings, with regard to the examination of sureties and recogn;zances, should be traniftrred from the . parties who at present conduit it to an cfficer specially appointed for the purpose by the Speaker. " It has also frequently been suggested that the phraseololy of public Bills might advantageously be revised by some com petent authority, for the purpose of insuring, as far as possible, uniformity in •the expressions made of, and curtailing whatever may be superfluous. " Supposing, then, that the House should, in the conrse of next session, determine upon the ad ption of t h e a! srgges lions, or either of them, the same party who might be in trusted with the examination of private Bills and the prepara tion of breviates, might also undertake the additional duties which would thus have to be performed, and the House would probably deem it advisable to sanction some permanent ar rangement, by virtue of which the authority of the officer ap pointed would be clearly defined, and a fixed and liberal salary appropriated to the office. " The duties connected with the breviates will terminate with the present session ; nor would they be renewed (even should the suggestion of your Committee as to the further continuance of the experiment be adopted) until the com mencement of the following session. Your Committee, how ever, suggest that the interval of the recess might be em ployed with great advantage in inquiring into the state of legislation in respect to the private business of the country, and preparing the materials for the future consideration of die House. " With a view to that object, they recommend the employ ment by the Government of some competent professional per sons, who shall classify the private business, and prepare drafts of general Bills to be submitted to the Legislature at the commencement of the next session, as the form of general enactments under each head. " With regard to the last branch of inquiry entrusted to your Committee, namely, what improvement can be suggested in the managemeneof private business by Committees, they must beg to refer to the minutes of evidence, and to the ap pendix. It will there appear that the constitution of the pre sent List Committees upon the Bill, and their mode of con ducting business, is universally complained of. The same witnesses, however, arc far from agreeing as to the remedy ; the plan adopted this year by the House of Lords has been recommended by many of them, and resolutions embodying the principle in practice, and carrying out the details of the plan, we re su b m i tte d to your C omm i ttee, and will be found in the appendix. In consequence, however, of a difference of opinion among the Members of your Committee, it did not appear expedient to recommend the adoption of such a plan to the House, or to depart from the opinion entertained upon this subject by the Committee which sat last year upon public and private business. " Other modifications of the present system, not involving a departure from the principle of local representation in Com mittees, but uniting that with the attendance of Members un connected with th e i nterests under discussion, were likewise considered ; but, upon the whole, your Committee are not prepared at present to recommend the adoption of any change in this respect. The subject, however, is one of so much im portance, and the constitution of Committees on private Bills, and their mode of transacting business according to the pre sent system, is avowedly so far from being satisfactory, that they deem the further consideration of it well worthy of tho attention of the House at the earliest period of the next ses sion.—August 4, 1838." The question of the charter of the Bank of Ireland is apparently destined to be a subject of much discussion in the monetary circles both of Dublin and London during the period which intervenes until Parliament again meets. The pretexts under which a renewal of this disgraceful monopoly of so im portant a portion of the banking business of Ireland is evidently meditated, form daily the subject of animadversicn amongst the parties in this city who are connected with the Irish private and Joint-stock Banks. Thus, in the recent Parliamentary debate on the subject, when it was shown that the Bank of Ireland receives annually an excess of interest, to the amount of at least 25,000/. per annum, as the difference between the interest at 4 per cent. which is paid on the 2} millions ad vanced to the Government, and the true rate of about 24 or 3 per cent., at which it is quite certain that the money could be borrowed elsewhere, it was answered by the Chan cellor of the Exchequer that the Bank of Ireland makes up for this extraordinary allowance of interest by the gratuitous management of the Irish National Debt. This reasoning is, however, asserted by the Irish politicians to be extremely hollow when the amount of the Irish debt and the value of the management of it are fairly taken into view ; for the national debt of Ireland is about 18 millions, and the expenses of managing the payments upon that amount, if reckoned upon the system of remuneration to the Bank of England for the management of a debt of 760 millions, would be somewhat less than a sum of 6,000/. per ear. But uit is perfectly well known that the payment to the Bank of Rug land is still more than double the amount at which the busin e ss could be transact e d without th e intervention of that institution, it is reasoned that in strict economy the management of tho Irish debt is not worth now more than a sum of about 2,000/. or 3,000/. per year, and consequently Mr. Spring Rice ad vances the cause of the monopolists in only a very insigni ficant degree by urging the services of the Bank of Ireland as an equivalent for a loss to the country of at least 25,000/. a-y ear. —Morning Paper. REMARKABLE EFFORT of NATURE.---Mr. Piing, the celebrated cribbage player, who is now residing at Broadstairs, affords a very remarkable instance of what nature can accompliA. This gentleman, who had been d um b f rom his birth (?), whil s t wa lki ng with Mr. G.- Almond, of Old Bond street, on Bridgeman Cliff', Cork, suddenly saw a child dashed to pieces almost at his feet, it having fallen from the cliff, upon which Mr. Piing suddenly received speech, ex claiming " Oh, Heavens !" and has ever since retained his poAers of language. He is at present sojourning at Broad stairs, where he may frequently ba heard, conversing with a true Milesian accent.—Maidstone Journal. CHURCH-RATES IN CllELSEA.—Yesterilay a Spe cial Petty Sessions for the extensive parish of St. Luke, Chel sea, was held in the vestry-room of the new church, before Mr. W. B. France and Captain Bague, two of the local Magis. trates, when upwards of 1,300 summonses against defaulters on the Church-rates of - this parish came on for adjudication. The question of Church-rates has for a long time excited winch angry feeling in Chelsea, arising principally from Cap tain Acklam, a county Magistrate, having objected to certain items in the accounts of the Church trustees, viz., such as the sal ,rics of the organist, organ-blower, &c. &e., which ques tion was ultimately brought by appeal before the bench at the Middlesex Quarter Sessions, when the Magistrates decided that their power to interfere only extended to the accounts of chutehwardens, and not to those of trustees. About th a t pe riod proceedings were instituted against the def au lt ers, whipscenes of a disorderly and riotous character occurred in the parish, which were at the time brought under judicial no tice. Subsequently a writ of UltiMitillltlS has been obtained from the Couit of Queen's Bench, to compel the justic es to hear the appeal, in which stage the matter at pres ent rests.
